Employee Engagement: How to Get Employees to Care More

You built your business with passion, grit, and long nights.

Now you're asking:

“Why don’t my employees care like I do?”

In this episode of the Business Building Blocks Podcast, leadership coach Kristina Schmitt breaks down the real reason employee engagement drops — and it’s not laziness.

When teams feel:

• Unclear about direction
• Disconnected from meaningful goals
• Unrecognized for consistent performance

They disengage.

Kristina shares 3 leadership shifts that increase employee engagement immediately:

1️⃣ Provide consistent direction and communication
2️⃣ Connect individual roles to goals that truly matter
3️⃣ Recognize and reinforce consistent performers

She also explains the 10-80-10 principle and why the “watchers” in your organization determine your culture.

If you’re a business owner, founder, or team leader who wants a culture of ownership instead of quiet quitting — this episode is for you.
